THE UNWILLING BRIDE (ENGLISH) CHAPTER 37
When he arrived at the hospital, he found Clarisa’s friends—Patrick, Cyena, and Loren—standing outside her room. They looked at him as if they wanted to clarify something. "How is Clarisa?" he asked, breaking the silence, as none of them seemed willing to speak. "She's inside, it looks like she’s asleep... Reed, is it true that you’re also the father of Diana’s unborn child?" Patrick asked, giving him a piercing look while waiting for his answer. Reed felt like he was on the hot seat. "I-I don’t know. She disappeared for a long time and didn’t show up. The last time we saw each other was at my wedding with Clarisa..." "If she is really pregnant and I’m the father, I will take responsibility for the child, but I need to be sure. I’ll have the baby undergo a DNA test." Clarisa’s friends exchanged glances. He wanted to tell them to believe him and not Diana, but he had no evidence. Even he was confused by everything that was happening. He excused himself and entered his wife’s room

CLARISA: Today is the day she’s being discharged from the hospital. Her mother came to help pack her things, and Lolo Miguel was there to settle the hospital bill. "Dear, after you’re discharged, you’ll still be staying at the mansion," Lolo Miguel said. "But I don’t want to go there, Grandpa! I want to stay at our house!" she insisted. "That’s not possible, dear. You’re pregnant, and you need help with your pregnancy. Especially since you still have amnesia, you need someone to guide you. I’ll hire a private nurse for you." "But Grandpa, my mom and dad can take care of me!" She wanted to insist on staying at their house; she didn’t want to live under the same roof as that womanizing Reed. "My decision is final—you’ll stay at the mansion. I won’t risk the welfare of my future grandchild because of your stubbornness!" Lolo Miguel said firmly. She was stunned. In her entire life, she had never seen Lolo Miguel so angry. "Listen to Don Miguel, Clarisa. This is all for your own go

Her husband helped her out of the car once more. "Lolo, can I stay in a different room?" she pleaded with the elderly man. "No! You’ll stay in your room with your husband... that’s how it should be. Besides, you need someone with you, even when you sleep, to keep an eye on you," Don Miguel insisted. Clarisa frowned, while Reed secretly smiled. His grandfather would do anything to ensure they reconciled as a couple. "Come on, sweetheart... you need to rest," Reed said gently. Clarisa stormed off to their room, not bothering to wait for him. She was so irritated that she walked off angrily. When Reed entered the room, she was already sitting on the bed, waiting for him. "Let’s get one thing straight, Reed! I don’t care if Lolo says we have to sleep in the same room, but there’s no way I’m letting you sleep next to me in this bed! You stay on the sofa, and I’ll sleep on the bed! Understood?" "Yes, sweetheart..." Reed responded like a child, seemingly just following her lead. She

Once Reed was sure she was comfortable, he went into the bathroom. She was startled when he came out, completely naked, walking around their room casually. She thought he would have assumed she was asleep, but he didn’t realize she was watching him. Was he modeling or something? But in fairness, her husband did look quite handsome. His body was stunning—muscles defined, a flat stomach, and impressive abs... Wow! Her gaze traveled to his manhood. She gasped. How did something so big and long fit inside her? How did she handle it? Didn’t she lose consciousness when he entered her? Shit, his manhood was enormous. Her whole body suddenly heated up. Perhaps Reed sensed she wasn’t asleep yet and approached her. Still naked, he was now right in front of her. "Sweetheart... aren’t you asleep yet? Is something wrong?" Shit, he caught me not sleeping!!! "Uh, I’m having trouble falling asleep..." she lied. If only he knew she had been watching him all this time. "Do you need anything?"

“Iha, this is your private nurse, Janeth,” Don Miguel introduced. “Hi, Ms. Clarisa!” Janeth greeted the nurse. “Hi, Janeth...” She looked at the nurse. She was quite beautiful, like a model nurse. She must have some foreign blood; she was mestiza and tall. Is she a nurse or a model? she wondered to herself. She suddenly thought about her husband. Oh no, he’s going to be in trouble with his unfaithful husband again! This one might get pregnant too. She frowned. “What’s wrong, dear? Are you feeling anything unusual?” Don Miguel asked worriedly, perhaps noticing the change in her expression. “Ah, nothing, Lolo. The baby just moved a bit, so my stomach suddenly hurts,” she lied. “Ah, the baby! Baby, come out soon. Lolo is excited to see you!” Don Miguel said cheerfully. “Alright, you stay here while I take care of things at the orchard. Janeth, take care of Ms. Clarisa, don’t leave her side.” “Yes, Don Miguel.” Clarisa was bored at home. Don Miguel went off to the orchard, Reed w

“I’m not suspicious; that’s a fact! And I don’t care if you’re seeing other women… Go ahead and see as many as you want!” “Hahaha... You’re cute, sweetheart. Don’t be sulky; our baby might turn out to be ugly if you keep it up!” “Hmmp... Fine, I’m going to sleep!” “Good night, sweetheart. I love you!” “I love you too, your face!” she replied and ended the call. Sigh... What else does he need to do for his wife? His patience with Clarisa was growing. He secretly smiled, knowing he was starting to win back his wife’s favor. A little more tenderness, and she would be his again. A little while later, he heard a knock at the door. He straightened himself up, put on some shorts, as he was only in his briefs after his shower. After putting on his shorts, he opened the door. It was probably just Aling Nena. They were the only ones in the house. “Reed! It’s good to see you here!” He was mistaken… It was Glenda. She was wearing just a small piece of fabric. He knew she was flirting wit

The friends were already by the pool. It had been a long time since they last saw each other. If it weren’t for their project, they wouldn’t have gotten together again.Each of them had their own businesses, but they decided to form a company together and plan to build a subdivision.They had acquired a one-thousand-hectare lot in Batangas, which they would develop into a subdivision.While waiting for their dinner, one of them sent over some beer so they could have a drink first... just to warm up a bit.After a while, Glenda arrived, bringing the pork stew her friends had asked to be prepared."Wow, that looks delicious, Glenda!""Yes, Sir! My mom’s cooking is really good!" she said, playfully charming her friends, even batting her eyes. He just sighed."Can I take a picture with you handsome gentlemen?" Glenda asked."Why? We’re not celebrities," Jon chimed in—he was the most playful among them."Oh, Sir! You’re even more handsome than actors! You look like F4! The ones from that T

"Good morning, Grandpa," Clarisa said as she arrived at the dining room, where the elderly man was having coffee."Good morning, dear." He stood up and helped her sit down."Grandpa, why do I have a new nurse again? Janeth has only been here for two days. What happened to her? Did something happen?""I replaced her, dear. Reed asked me to. He thought you might get jealous. He doesn’t want you to feel bad about little things he didn’t even do, so he thought it would be best if I just replaced Janeth."Clarisa thought about what her grandfather said. Jealous of Janeth? She remembered she had teased Reed, saying that her new nurse was pretty and sexy. She smiled at the thought. She had only been joking, but Reed had taken it seriously. Poor Janeth—she lost her job because of it.But it was probably for the best. Janeth wasn’t doing her job well anyway, and Maria was much better and more attentive."Maria is great, dear. She’s experienced, so she’ll be a big help to you, especially since

When they went out, her parents and Grandpa Miguel were already waiting at the dining table. Tita Grace and Blue were also there, busy watching Cocomelon on his tablet. They walked hand in hand, and the elderly people smiled as they approached. At first, she didn’t know why they were smiling. Then, she remembered that she and Reed were holding hands, and she was about to pull her hand away. But Reed didn’t let go. She had no choice but to just go along with it. "You’re here, my grandchildren... come, the food is waiting," Grandpa Miguel said. They both just nodded. She was still a bit shy. Reed helped her sit down, and then he sat next to her. "So, what’s your plan for your relationship, children?" Tatay Kardo asked. "Ahm, I’m going back to America, Tay... I’ll just finish my vacation here," she replied. "Why are you going back to America, my dear? Your husband can take care of you. And your hacienda is big enough... Isn’t that enough for you?" her mother asked. "Lolo... I have

After they ate, they walked around the hacienda. They walked hand in hand while their child ran around the wide lot of their house.A little while later, their maid, Nene, approached them. "Ma'am Clarisa, someone is looking for you... They said it's Anton.""Anton is here?" she said in disbelief."Who's Anton?" Reed asked, raising an eyebrow."Ah, he's a friend of mine... He was the one who helped me when Fernando kidnapped me. Just wait, I'll go see Anton..." she excitedly replied. It had been a long time since they last saw each other. Her mother was the one who told her that Anton visited their hacienda whenever he wasn’t busy. She didn’t have social media, so he couldn’t contact her."Anton!" she shouted as she saw him talking to her father. He smiled as he waited for her to reach him."I’ll leave you two for now. I still have a lot to do..." Her father said as he said goodbye."How are you, Ma'am Clarisa? Long time no see!" Anton greeted her happily."Didn't I tell you not to cal

It was already evening when they finished eating. They spent a long time at the dining table because of their endless stories. They missed each other. Her parents and Don Miguel were talking about the mango plantation, while she was busy taking care of her child, feeding him. After they ate, she took Reed to the room where he would be staying. Blue, on the other hand, would sleep in her room. "Sweetheart, why can't I sleep in your room? Aren’t we okay now?" he asked, pouting. "It's embarrassing to Mom and Dad if we sleep in the same room... We just got back together!" she explained. "That's actually better. They might even prefer it. Besides, we’re married. It’s normal for a married couple to sleep beside each other... And what about my promise to you that I’d take care of you later?" "Shhhh! Be quiet! Someone might hear you! You're so shameless," she scolded her husband. "Why? What's wrong?" he asked, feigning innocence. "Just shut up!" she said, clearly losing patience in tr

They walked together into the mansion. Blue was in between the hands of his parents, while Reed and Clarisa walked hand-in-hand, following them. She didn’t really want to hold hands with him. She was shy because their staff at the hacienda were staring at them. She tried to pull her hand away, but Reed didn’t let go."Why? Are you ashamed of me? I’m handsome, aren’t I?" he joked."It’s embarrassing, they’re staring at us.""Let them look. I want you by my side always..." he whispered in her ear and then put his arm around her. She felt a thrill from what he did; it was like they were back to courting each other."By the way, Reed, Clarisa, Don Miguel is here too," her father said."Grandpa Miguel? What’s he doing here?" Reed asked in confusion. Both of them were surprised that Don Miguel was there. Before her parents could respond, they saw the old man approaching."Well, here you are, my grandchildren?" he happily greeted them."Grandpa!!!" she shouted and ran to him. She hugged him

Here we go again... the topic from two years ago is being brought up again. She didn’t want to talk about it anymore. She didn’t want to revisit it because it still hurt, but she had no choice but to listen because she was driving. She couldn’t pretend to sleep. She couldn’t silence Reed with what he was saying either... She had no choice but to listen to his explanation."God knows how much I regret not believing you. I looked for you back then, but I couldn’t find you.""Is what happened with Diana also just an accident?" she asked, almost sarcastically. She didn’t believe it was an accident."I don’t know, sweetheart, how she ended up in our room. She gave me a drug to drink... before I knew it, she was holding my manhood, but please believe me, sweetheart, I didn’t want that. You’re the one I love..."She glared at him again to hide the pain in her chest. She felt her eyes starting to water, threatening to cry. She could barely see the road. She stopped the car on the side. Thankf

The next morning, they were awakened by the noise of their child, who had gotten up before them."Yehey! We're in the same bed! Mom, Dad, and me!" the child exclaimed happily. Reed was right last night—if their child found out they weren’t sleeping together, he would be upset. It was a good thing she listened to her husband."Good morning, baby," she greeted her child. Reed also woke up from the noise."Good morning, Mommy," the child said, planting a kiss on her lips."Good morning, Daddy," he added, kissing his father on the lips too."You both kiss Mom and Dad," the child commanded, giggling."L-later, sweetheart. Mommy's breath smells bad," she tried to reason."It's okay, even if Mommy smells bad, I'll still kiss her," Reed teased before kissing her on the lips. "Good morning, sweetheart," he said softly, making her blush again."Yehey!" Blue cheered with excitement."Mommy, didn’t you say we’re going to visit Grandpa and Grandma today?""Yes, sweetheart. We’re leaving today. You

She went to the closet to grab something to wear. She didn't bother opening her luggage since it would only be a hassle to reorganize it tomorrow when she and Blue left.Once she was dressed, she was about to leave the room to check on her child."Where are you going?""To Blue's room. I'll sleep there.""No need. I'll bring him here so the three of us can sleep together.""Are you kidding me? Why would I do that?" she snapped at him."Suit yourself. But if your son wakes up and we're not sleeping together as a family, he'll get upset again," he said nonchalantly. She suddenly fell silent."You stay here; I'll get Blue," Reed said, standing up and walking out the door. She was left sitting on the sofa.When he returned, he was carrying their sleeping child. She quickly stood up to greet him and take Blue from him. She flinched when their skin accidentally brushed against each other.Get a grip, Clarisa! Acting like a virgin just because of a little touch? she scolded herself.Once she

"Your dad's room is bigger, sweetheart... can he just stay there? We might not all fit in your bed," she tried to convince the child again. She still couldn’t fully grasp the idea of sharing a bed with him."Then let’s just stay in your room with Dad, Mom. I’ll move to his room as long as we’re all together," Blue replied."That’s right, baby. Let’s stay in our room with your mom so you can roll around. Our bed is big enough, right? Back then, your mom used to roll around on it too," Reed chimed in from behind them, carrying his luggage. They hadn’t noticed he had followed them. He meant something else entirely, but she chose to ignore it.She shot him a sharp look for joking around with their child. Had he and Blue already conspired on this before she even arrived at the mansion?"Mom, let’s go to Dad’s room!" Blue exclaimed enthusiastically, tugging her out of the room and leading her to Reed’s bedroom.At first, she hesitated to enter, but Blue gave her a little push, urging her in

They sat in silence in the car as he drove. She didn’t say a word either.“H-how have you been? I’ve been looking for you for so long… you and Nanay Celia and Tatay Kardo. I even went to the mango orchard, but you weren’t there anymore.”“We hid in a place where no one knew us, where no one could mock me because of the video that spread back then,” Clarisa replied, her face blank. There was no trace of her true emotions.“A-about the video… I just want you to know that I believe you now. I’m sorry for not trusting you right away back then, sweetheart,” he said to his wife.He saw her tears begin to fall. The brave front Clarisa had put up crumbled, and she started crying. He quickly pulled the car to the side of the road to comfort her.“Don’t cry, sweetheart. It breaks my heart to see you like this. Please forgive me for what I’ve done to you. I still love you…” he whispered to her. Her sobs grew louder until she buried her face in his shoulder.He kissed her to try and stop her tear
